Chapter 667

Li Qiufeng felt pity in his heart when he thought of the tragic death of more than 300,000 Zhao army soldiers.

Sun Guangming pointed his riding whip forward with his right hand and said: "Master Li, please look, not far ahead is Tanikou Village. Back then, this village was located at the exit of several valleys, so it was named Tanikou Village. Now you can see it at a glance.

The place he reached was all flat land, and there were no valleys. This was because Bai Qi wanted to kill all the prisoners of war of the Zhao army, but he could not dig out such a large pit to bury more than 300,000 people in a short period of time.

It happened that there were several valleys here, more than ten feet below the ground, which was a good place to bury Zhao Jun's surrendered soldiers alive. He sent people to trick Zhao Jun into surrendering his soldiers, saying that he would set up a camp in the valley and prepare food for temporary settlement.

At that time, most of the soldiers of the Zhao army were starving to death. When they heard that food was prepared in the valley, they supported each other and struggled to go to several valleys. However, they did not expect that what was waiting for them was not food, but murderers and butchers.

Bai Qi, there are still hundreds of thousands of Qin troops who are like wolves and tigers!"

Li Qiufeng returned from Jinyiwei this time and faced tens of thousands of troops in Yong'an City. At that time, he stood on the city wall and saw the attacking army outside the city. He felt that it was boundless. Thinking of Bai Qi killing three people here in one fell swoop

More than 100,000 Zhao troops surrendered. The situation was so tragic that even imagining it made him tremble. He looked gloomy and couldn't help blurting out: "Isn't Bai Qi scared after killing so many people?"

Sun Guangming said: "These emperors, generals, and ministers, in their eyes, other people's lives are like ants. What they value is only their power, status, and so-called reputation. What's ridiculous is that they do these unscrupulous bad things.

, the banner is for the people, for the world's living beings. From Bai Qi, Qin Shihuang, to Liu Bang, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Sun Quan, Li Shimin, Wu Zetian, Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Guangyi, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di, none of these people has their hands full.

The blood of ordinary people?”

When Sun Guangming said this, the muscles on his face twitched a few times, and then he said: "But these people did not end well. Bai Qi was loyal to the Qin State and led the Qin army to fight against the Six Kingdoms of Shandong in eleven battles.

, never suffered a defeat, and killed more than a million people? But he was called a massacre, but in the end he was forced to death by the King of Qin, and no bones were left. During the Changping War, Bai Qi thought that the local people's hearts were towards the Zhao State, and he was afraid that the people would report the news to the Zhao army.

, actually wanted to kill all the people, forcing them to leave their homes. When I first came to Taniguchi Village, I saw the people eating a kind of grilled tofu called Baiqirou. This is because since the Changping War

After that, the local people hated Bai Qi for generations. In order to commemorate the souls of Zhao Jun who were killed by starvation, they served rice as a dish, tofu as meat, grilled over a fire, and mixed tofu residue with minced garlic and ginger into a dipping sauce.

Tou' means to pound Baiqi's brain into mud and eat it with tofu, so it is called "Baiqirou", which shows the depth of his hatred and hatred. Later, Baiqirou gradually spread and became a

Grilled tofu has become a famous local dish in Gaoping."

Li Qiufeng said "Oh" and said: "I see. After this is over, Li also wants to try this famous dish."

Sun Guangming said: "The people's will cannot be violated. Even if you are proud for a moment, if your intentions offend the world and harm the living beings, you will inevitably bring disaster to your descendants. For thousands of years, who has dared to call himself a descendant of Bai Qi? For example, Zhuge Wuhou,

Although he fought for half his life and burned the vine-armored soldiers, the people of later generations still respected him as a god and worshiped him at all times. The descendants of Wuhou multiplied and lived endlessly. This is because Wuhou served the country and the people. Although the punishments were severe, he came from

Be public-minded and don't kill people for selfish reasons. Even if you use conspiracy in battle, you don't kill indiscriminately. You follow the wishes of the people and extend your blessings to your descendants. Let's look at the descendants of Qin Shihuang, Liu Bang, Cao Cao, Li Shimin, Wu Zetian, and Zhao Guangyi.

Which one has a good ending?"

Li Qiufeng thought in his heart that there are countless evil people in the world who have a happy ending. Among other things, Zhu Di killed Jianwen's loyal ministers extremely cruelly. Although the Tumu Fort incident caused the Yingzong to lose all his face, most of his descendants did so.

Emperor Taiping. The theory of karma and retribution is ultimately futile. However, people like Sun Guangming and Situ Qiao studied the Five Elements of Qimen and were too obsessed with it. It is not uncommon to believe in these fallacies.

The two of them were chatting and unknowingly left the path and arrived at a village. The village was very dilapidated, with more than a dozen families scattered around. The houses were dilapidated and most of the walls had collapsed. The roof tiles

It was in tatters and was covered with dead weeds everywhere.

Sun Guangming and Li Qiufeng rode horses to a dilapidated earth platform in front of the village, and reined in their horses in unison. Sun Guangming sighed and said to Li Qiufeng: "This was the world-famous Taniguchi Village back then. But look at this place now.

In such a situation, where is there any trace of popularity?"

Li Qiufeng looked at the desolation all around and couldn't help but said: "The land here is barren, with very few trees and grassland, so the grain is not abundant. Why do these people still stay here instead of migrating to other places for food?"

Sun Guangming said: "Master Li, don't look at how dilapidated this village is now. It used to be a prosperous scene. After the Changping War, although it was once full of corpses, no one dared to live here. But after the Qin State unified the world, it was in Changping

Ping established Gaoping County, which belongs to Shangdang County. Because the Qin army suffered a tragic victory here, the head of Shangdang County cleaned the bones here and moved hundreds of families there. The place slowly prospered. And Taniguchi

More than ten miles southeast of the village is the mausoleum of Emperor Yan. Emperor Yan is the ancestor of our Chinese descendants. This is his hometown. It was originally the place where outstanding people lived. Many famous ministers and generals have been produced in the past dynasties. After these people became famous,

People would buy land and build houses here, and it was very lively for a time. But more than ten years ago, I heard that there was a drought here, and the people had to leave their homes and become homeless. After the disaster, the plague broke out again, and those who stayed here

Almost all the people died from the plague. After that, the place fell into decline."

Sun Guangming said this, paused for a moment, and then continued: "But there is also an extremely scary legend circulating here. It is said that during the Northern Song Dynasty, this place was still very lively. There were hundreds of households in the village, and there was a large building in the village.

Temple. The large temple enshrines Zhao Kuo, the commander-in-chief of the Zhao army who died in Changping that year. The village holds a temple fair every year on the eighth day of December, and invites a theater troupe to sing on the stage in front of the temple to comfort those who died in Changping that year.

The resentful spirits of the Zhao army officers and soldiers asked them to bless this area with good weather and good harvests.

"On the eighth day of December of that year, people from nine villages in this area rushed to the stage of the Taniguchi Village Temple to watch a play. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden thunder and lightning, and it rained heavily. Since ancient times, there has been no reason for rain in December.

?The people panicked and fled in all directions. After they escaped for several miles, they turned around and looked back, only to see that the big temple and the stage had disappeared. After the heavy rain, the people returned to the village, and the big temple and the stage were gone.

The stage disappeared out of thin air, leaving only a crack as thick as an arm on the ground, and a trace of cold air came out of the crack.

"The people then remembered that when they fled, there were more than a dozen opera singers on the stage. But the incident happened in a hurry, and everyone fled in all directions without paying attention to where these actors went. The cold air in the cracks kept floating

It took three days, and on the morning of the fourth day, the coldness had just dissipated. Taniguchi Village picked out a dozen strong men and dug down along the cracks. They dug more than five feet deep, but still did not reach the bottom. However, they still did not reach the bottom.

There was cold air wafting out of the cracks again, and from time to time, the sound of war drums and the sound of gold and iron could be heard underground, as if two armies were fighting underground.

"These men no longer dared to dig down and were about to climb out of the pit. Unexpectedly, the mounds of soil piled up beside the pit suddenly collapsed, immediately burying more than a dozen men in the pit. The people were so frightened that they couldn't help but

Dare to stay, shouted, and fled in all directions. It was not until the next morning that the villagers reported the case to the Gaoping County Yamen. The government sent detectives to investigate the case, but they found that the crack had disappeared.

The ground is no different from the surrounding ground, with no traces of excavation at all.

"The police officers thought that the village official reported a false case and their trip was in vain, so they cursed and threatened, and then walked away. The people in the village knew that this matter was strange, but they did not dare to say anything about it.

But not long after, there was a legend in this area. It was said that Zhao Kuo was defeated and died in Changping. His soul was so angry that he refused to fall into reincarnation. He took more than 300,000 Zhao soldiers who were buried alive by the Qin army with him.

The resentful spirits of the soldiers were still wandering underground in Changping, looking for the Qin people to fight for their lives. The opera troupe invited by the villagers that day was from Guanzhong, and the song they sang was "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Formation" composed by Li Guinian, a Li Yuan musician of the Tang Dynasty.

The resentful ghosts of the Zhao army who have been wandering underground in Changping for thousands of years hate the people of Qin the most. Although "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Formation" sings the story of Li Shimin, the king of Qin in the Tang Dynasty, he is from Shaanxi.

When this song was written, it was mixed with the ancient songs of the Qin people. When the resentful spirits of the Zhao army heard the Qin song, they thought that the Qin army had finally arrived.

In December, there was a heavy rain. A hole opened in the earth, swallowing up all the opera singers in the temple and the stage. They fell into the hands of the resentful spirits of Zhao Jun underground, and they were considered as living sacrifices to these resentful spirits..."

When Sun Guangming mentioned this, Li Qiufeng couldn't help but said: "This legend is too ridiculous and cannot be believed. I think it is just a chat between ignorant people in the countryside before tea and after dinner."

Sun Guangming said: "These market legends should not be underestimated. Although some legends are exaggerated, they often hide some truth."

Li Qiufeng said: "But if you exaggerate the appearance of ghosts and gods, how can people believe it? Li thinks that there are no ghosts and gods in the world, they are just made up to deceive people by people with other agendas."

Sun Guangming said: "To be honest, when I first arrived here, I couldn't believe it when I heard the legend. But according to what the villagers said, I tried to dig out the place where the big temple disappeared.

Only then did I realize that the land there was indeed different from the surrounding areas, and it must have been excavated before."

When Sun Guangming said this, he glanced at Li Qiufeng, pointed the riding whip in his hand at the earthen platform only two or three feet away from the two of them, and said in a deep voice: "That is where the legendary temple and stage were devoured. It is said that the ten

After several men were buried in the pit, the village invited Taoist priests to build a soul-calming platform on top of the pit. However, not long after the soul-calming platform was built, it was struck by lightning and collapsed, leaving only the base of the platform.

It has survived hundreds of years of wind and rain, and even the foundation has become so dilapidated. Sigh."
